If a Super League side were to sign Widdop would he count as a quota player despite being English because he was trained in Australia and not in England?

He was on the Halifax books for a bit which would make him English trained?

If he still holds, or has a right to, a UK passport then he is not an 'overseas player'.

Surely if he's born here and only left 4 years ago he's still British? Unless he has surrendered his UK passport.

Both the Gleeson sisters and young Widdles were all born in ENGLAND.
This makes them ENGLISH. |

Passports and nationality have noting to do with it. That system was abandoned after certain clubs took the proverbial urine with Kolpak signings and Aussies who had great, great ancestors that they could use as a ticket to an EU passport.
IIRC, he has to have been registered with a UK club for three consecutive years between the ages of 16 and 21 to be considered a "federation trained" player. The fact he has a UK passport doesn't come into it.

There are extenuating circumstances though IIRC. |
